What regulations have been put in that are bad? It's pretty clear that a lack of regulations has caused many various problems throughout history, let alone in recent economic times. While I would love every market to be open and unregulated, it simply isn't possible.
You don't think it would be a larger decline in the private sector if he didn't step in? So no company is better than a company owned by the citizens of the Country that still produces wealth?

The fact that the government has grown with every president does not make it right, it makes for taxes to pay for it, simple math. Or are you saying that more people working for the government will magically pay for itself?
Or that 40,697 new laws were passed at the beginning of the year and not knowing them is not an excuse in the court system, do you know all of them?

Yes the unemployment rate have been skewing like this for many years now. Other Presidents have extended benefits before as well, it's not anything new. It didn't kill our Country when Republicans did it, it won't kill it now.
And yes, many people aren't working... However, new jobs are being created. Not gov jobs, actual private sector jobs. And jobs are the 'very last' thing to improve. No reason to expect a real turn around in jobs for at least another year.
.... point is still, shit is going pretty damn good right now. It's not perfect, nobody should expect it to be.

Private sector jobs are not being made, they are still loosing jobs,
Initial jobless claims drop to 457,000 , you're going to have to prove to me that losing 457,000 jobs is a good thing and going in the right direction

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
